I'll jump in and say this - in a side by side comparison of a used Stello DA100 signature with up-sampling on and my new PS Audio DLIII set for 96Khz up-sampling (with 20 hours on it), the two sounded almost indistinguishable. With the PS Audio set at 192 Khz up-sampling the PS Audio became slightly brighter and more spacious.
Blutarsky was offering me one or the other in a trade for my APS modified Koss ESP-950 stats, and I chose the PS Audio because it worked with my dark sounding Stax O2 Mk1 on the GES better when in 192 Khz mode.
This fits perfectly with what dukja has said.
